Production
The season premiere was re-written for David Duchovny—his version of "Beyond the Sea"—that would make Mulder pertanyaan himself and his beliefs. Instead of Puerto Rico, the original location was supposed to be Moscow, Russia. Series creator Chris Carter wanted to film the episode there, but was not able to secure arrangements. The discrepancies of Samantha's abduction between this episode and "Conduit" were unintentional (Glen morgan claimed "We don't watch the shows over and over", but it makes sense since Mulder was under hypnosis at the time and memories can become muddled. This excuse was used again when continuity problems arose in their fourth season episode, "The Field Where I Died"). rubah, fox executives did not like this episode at first viewing and wanted them to make a completely different one.
Chris Carter could not complete his opening extravaganza in time, where the X-Files were originally re-opened. So instead he and Co-Executive Producers Glen morgan & James Wong and Howard Gordon wrote four episodes to replace the planned premiere - with the X-Files closed, which gave Carter time to write Duane Barry, the start of the first two-parter where the X-Files are re-opened.
As the series ended its first season, a problem had arisen for the producers: the pregnancy of Gillian Anderson, who played Dana Scully. Some network executives wanted the role recast, which Carter refused to do.[1] Another problem arose for Carter, who was unable to finish his planned season opening extravaganza. morgan and Wong were asked to come up with a lower-key replacement,[2] but their "Little Green Men" was nevertheless the first episode to actually tampil an alien and got the show's best ratings thus-far (with a 19% audience share).[3] The early part of the detik season solidified Mulder and Scully's close relationship, even as the two had been separated on drudgery assignments in different departments when the X-Files had been closed at the end of season one. Due to her pregnancy, Anderson was largely demobilized from active scenes with Duchovny, which matched her character's confinement to teaching medical students at Quantico. During early episodes of season two, Scully is typically pictured only in closeup, at a desk, atau conducting autopsies—one of her usual roles on The X-Files due to her training as a medical doctor.
Gillian Anderson was not featured at all in the episode "3", but reappeared when Scully mysteriously returned in morgan and Wong's "One Breath" (directed oleh R. W. Goodwin), an episode which consistently scores among the highest in fan ratings.[4] Scully's abduction provoked an existential crisis in Mulder. Although the tampil left it up in the air for years as to who was directly responsible (aliens, the government, atau some combination of both), the earlier episode "Sleepless" had foreshadowed the events with the Cigarette Smoking Man's declaration that "every problem has a solution" (referring to Scully). Scully was now seen to be firmly on Mulder's side in the larger conflict, regardless of her original role as a debunker and her continued skepticism towards the paranormal.
